Holy Cow First Try!!

Post by SKM » Mon May 21, 2018 8:19 pm

I submitted a simple stripped down guitar and vocal cover for a library as my very first ever submission and it got forwarded! I'm so honored and stoked that the screener thought I was good enough and it really helped boost my confidence to keep on submitting! YAY!

Sara,
Are you at liberty and able to post a link to the "lucky number"?
Congrats. 1-for-1 is still a 100% success-rate.

Great to get forwarded anway, but first go? Really well done, so congratulations. As others have suggested, why not post a link so we can hear what worked for you?

Duh of course! What was I thinking? They were looking for covers of well-known songs that were different from the originals and I went to my open mic go-to!

Thank you so much! Everybody is so nice and supportive here. I really appreciate it. My next 2 submissions were returned, but it is all good. The first forward made me confident enough to remember that I will be returned way more times than forwarded while I am learning the ropes here. Thank you for the compliments. See you again soon! :)
